He said that the goats that belonged to Tiamiyu Shittu, the complainant, were recovered from the defendant’s house.

He added that “ Tiamiyu Shittu rears goat in his compound, but some weeks ago, he couldn’t find the goats and told the neighbours who helped him search the community and the goats were later found at the defendants home.”

The prosecutor said the offences contravened sections 411 and 287 of the Criminal Laws, Lagos State, 2011.
